Containers

Most plants will grow quite happily in containers and you can make just as fabulous a display using plants in containers as you can in the garden - great news if you're short on outdoor space. In our garden centre in Nantgarw you'll find a container for every plant: just match your plants to the pot that suits it best for instant success.

Pots come in a huge range of styles and materials from ceramic to terracotta, stainless steel and stone. Let your imagination run riot creating mixed displays of perennials and shrubs in larger pots for instant impact.

Troughs and grow spaces work brilliantly for growing vegetables on the patio. Place troughs against a wall to grow climbing beans, or divide a grow space as small as 1m x 1m into squares for planting a surprisingly wide variety of fruit and veg.

Hanging baskets brighten up the dingiest of entrance ways with brilliant scarlet pelargoniums or, for something different, tumbling tomatoes or chillies. In our garden centre you'll find not only the baskets but also liners and water-retaining gel to mix into the compost to hold on to moisture for longer.

Please ask the staff in our Nantgarw garden centre for more information and advice about choosing containers.

Growing giants

Growing giant pumpkins is one of the great challenges of the gardening year, so start now for record-breakers by late summer. Buy a ready-grown pumpkin from our garden centre for a head start (choose a show-stopping variety like 'Atlantic Giant' for the largest fruits) and plant into a hole filled with well-rotted manure or into the top of your compost heap for a really rich soil it'll relish. Feed regularly, keep well watered and you should have some real whoppers to show off by Hallowe'en.
